RMJ Entry #27:

Which would you rather?

- Park under the blazing sun and return later to a sizzling hot car?
or
- Park in the shades under a tree and return later to car smothered with bird poop?

Yours truly happened to have chosen the latter and as a result spent an hour this weekend washing away the damages.

Speaking of washing my car, I noticed the poor thing is really beginning to show signs of its age. My Little Red Riding Hood is 11 years old. It had never suffered any serious damage (knock on wood), but it does have the usual wear and tear - a little dent here, a tiny dint there, patches of faded paint here, and speckles of chipped paint there. Washing it this weekend, I also noticed tiny little cracks on the front emblem. Oh no, not the emblem - the symbol of my Little Red Riding Hood's identity! Now I really feel bad for not taking better care of it. I thought I did, but I guess I didn't.
